Mr Wife ☑️

chapter 21: Interrupted Kiss

Sky's POV

"I don't want to go, Eve." I sigh as I massage my temple while telling her for the nth time.

"Come on, Sky. It would be fun and keeping that a side it's actually for the successful completion of the project. And to cheer for many more to come in the future." She tries to convince me.

Many more to come in the future? I swear I'm not going to do any more projects with you again. This will be the last.

Actually, the project where I collaborated with Eve's company finally came to an end with success. It came out more better than we thought and brought popularity to their company making them earn more profits. And now keeping that an as excuse, she's here to invite me for a success party. In any case, I too would have attend and celebrate my success. But I know this girl's plan. Last time we had a situation like this and at the end I came to know it was just her and me, no other person at the party. What kind of party is that? When I asked she said, since we were both the main people behind the success, the other were not included. How can that be? Without the help from other employees and staff, nothing can be done or moved forward. We're the main people but we aren't the ones working physically and actually bringing out the products to life. I hated that fact and realised it was just her excuse to have a meet with me as I won't agree in any other situations. And she's repeating it again but this time I'm not going to fall for her cunning plans.

"I said I..." Before I could finish, the door to my cabin gets open and there walks Eco.

"Eco?" I call out confused while standing up.

"Hii, baby!" He greets me with a big smile while making his way towards me, I didn't miss the glaring glance that he threw at Eve.

I instantly feel nervous. What if he thinks I'm flirting with her, like the time during our honeymoon? However, I immediately get reminded of his health and my worry turns to him.

"Are you feeling okay now?" I ask him when he comes and stands next to me.

I wanted to ask him why he's here when he isn't in good health but then if he misunderstood my intention and think I'm asking him that because he saw me with a girl. So, I put the question in a better manner. Also, since he's here it means it's permitted by mom. If Eco's health is still not supporting him, mom wouldn't allow him and would ask him to rest instead.

"I'm feeling better, baby." He nods, the smile not leaving his face, "I brought lunch for you today. I'm going to eat together with you. Are you busy?" He looks at Eve as he asks.

The way he asked it seems like even if I'm busy, I should say I'm not.

"Not really, we're almost done talking." I reply.

"So Sky are you agreeing to go with me?" Eve queries in front of Eco.

Girl, you're digging your own grave.

From what I get from Eco's character, he won't do anything to me when someone approaches me or flirts me, he'll rather teach the lesson to that person. I know that but still I don't want to mess up anything from my side. And angry or calm Eco is kinda scary.

"Go where? Where do you want to go with my husband?" Eco beats me as he questions her back.

"There's a success party since the collaboration project between us turned successful. I'm asking Sky to join me." Eve replies with an attitude.

If she thinks she has an attitude, she should think twice because Eco is like the master at it. He can just burn you down with his looks.

"Oh, really? That's great! My husband will definitely attend the party." Eco exclaims happily which makes Eve smile while I look at him confused, "I'll make sure to bring my husband to the party."
